Dreams of Skokloster

The exhibition is our permanent exhibition. By moving some of our splendid artefacts down to the ground floor, we have improved accessibility so that more people can enjoy our unique collections.

The Paradise Playground

Welcome to our brand new historical play area on the south side of the castle. We call this lush spot next to the castle "Paradiset". Here, you can explore nature and learn more about what was once cultivated at Skokloster. You can also play in the pavilion and ride in a horse-drawn carriage.

Pre-fall in the shop

A knight’s helmet for a child or a magnificent ceiling painting on a coffee mug? The museum shop has a wide range for all ages, often inspired by the castle’s interiors and history.
